"The Pride o' the Morning" by Agnes Giberne is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story centers on the lives and relationships of several interconnected families living in the English Midlands, with particular focus on Colin, Giles, and Phyllys. The narrative explores themes of family loyalty, personal ambition, social expectations, and the longing for freedom and understanding. The opening of the novel introduces the cast and setting, beginning with Colin's return to Castle Hill and the warm yet uneasy dynamics between Mrs. Keith, her son Colin, and her ward Giles. Mrs. Keith anxiously awaits Colin's arrival, revealing the emotional complexities of loving both boys as equals. The scene shifts to Midfell, where Phyllys Wyverne—a spirited and imaginative young woman—struggles with the restrictive environment created by her grandmother and cousin Barbara. As Giles and Phyllys are brought together through family ties and shared sensibilities, their mutual attraction and understanding become apparent amidst the stifling social atmosphere. The early chapters establish a world of subtle rivalries, deep affections, and the desire for personal growth, setting the tone for a character-driven exploration of love, independence, and belonging.
